Went last night and I have say super film from my home town. The Producer actually used to go out with my Brother. But thats no reason to see the Film. See it because if you have never seen a Madden Film, You will find a beautiful strange, most unique vision. Its little like being awake and dreaming.

Anyone want recommend another movie. Or does anyone totally disappointed in my reccomendation?

Synopsis from Filmfest site http://www.filmfest-muenchen.de/

It’s 1933 in Winnipeg and the Great depression is in full bloom. To boost sales, Beer Baroness Lady Port-Huntly announces a global competition to determine the saddest music in the world, and musicians from around the globe pour into town to vie for the whopping $25,000 prize. Sobbing Mexican mariachis, dour Scottish bagpipers, woeful West African drummers and numerous other grief-stricken ensembles give it their all. Down-on-his- luck Broadway producer Chester Kent and his amnesiac girlfriend Narcissa return home to Winnipeg. He soon finds himself embroiled in a family reunion as treacherous and twisted as the competition itself. Part musical melodrama, part tongue-in-cheek social satire, this expressionistic film achieves a level of lunacy rarely seen since the Marx Brothers. �The first words that come to mind are, ‘Hot damn!’
